Electronic Arts confirmed today that the new MIrror’s Edge from DICE will be released in early 2016. EA lists the game for released during the first three months of 2016 in a financial earnings presentation. Mirror’s Edge was first announced in 2013 , when EA said that the game “reboots the franchise for the next generation,” and will deliver an all new origin story for Mirror;s Edge protagonist Faith.

At last year’s E3, EA and DICE offered an update on the development of Mirror’s Edge

Senior producer Sara Jansson said last year:

“I wanted to let you know that the game is progressing nicely and I think you’re going to love it,” “I know many of you probably wish we would show more of the game, but we’re still pretty early in development and our passionate core Mirror’s Edge team is working full on to make the best game possible.”

Mirror’s Edge is all about fluidity, physicality and movement. We want to make sure we evolve the game and Faith in a way that gives you an exciting new player experience. We want the game to be accessible enough to embrace new players while at the same time reward the skilled player. We are also committed to provide the best 1st person close combat in the world. Advanced combat that is integrated into an improved fluidity of movement. These are not small undertakings, but they are challenges that we are up for.

The original Mirror’s Edge launched in 2009 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows PC.

DICE is currently working on Star Wars Battlefront, which will release on November 17 2015 and plans to release a new Battlefield game during the fourth quarter of 2016.
